Determine whether each of the descriptions of matter describes a heterogeneous mixture, a homogeneous mixture, or a pure substan

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer: a. two substances present; two phases present : Heterogeneous mixture

b. two substances present; one phase present : Homogeneous mixture

c. one substance present; one phase present : pure substance.

d. one substance present; two phases present: Heterogeneous mixture

Explanation:

A pure substance is a substance which contains definite composition of only one type of component. Hence, it cannot be separated by physical means.

Mixture is a substance which contains two or more than two types of components and they can be separated by physical means as well.

Homogeneous mixtures: It is a mixture that has uniform composition throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are not different. There is no physical boundary between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

Heterogeneous mixtures: It is a mixture that has non-uniform composition throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are also different. There is a physical boundary between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

A 3.50 g sample of an unknown compound containing only C , H , and O combusts in an oxygen‑rich environment. When the products h

statuscvo [17]

Explanation:

First, calculate the moles of $CO_{2}$ using ideal gas equation as follows.

PV = nRT

or, n = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

= $\frac{1 atm \times 4.41 ml}{0.0821 Latm/mol K \times 293 K}$ (as 1 bar = 1 atm (approx))

= 0.183 mol

As, Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

Hence, mass of water will be as follows.

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

0.998 g/ml = $\frac{mass}{3.26 ml}$

mass = 3.25 g

Similarly, calculate the moles of water as follows.

No. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

= $\frac{3.25 g}{18.02 g/mol}$

= 0.180 mol

Moles of hydrogen = $0.180 \times 2$ = 0.36 mol

Now, mass of carbon will be as follows.

No. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

0.183 mol = $\frac{mass}{12 g/mol}$

= 2.19 g

Therefore, mass of oxygen will be as follows.

Mass of O = mass of sample - (mass of C + mass of H)

= 3.50 g - (2.19 g + 0.36 g)

= 0.95 g

Therefore, moles of oxygen will be as follows.

No. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

= $\frac{0.95 g}{16 g/mol}$

= 0.059 mol

Now, diving number of moles of each element of the compound by smallest no. of moles as follows.

C H O

No. of moles: 0.183 0.36 0.059

On dividing: 3.1 6.1 1

Therefore, empirical formula of the given compound is $C_{3}H_{6}O$ .

Thus, we can conclude that empirical formula of the given compound is $C_{3}H_{6}O$ .

A gas has a pressure of 0.470 atm at 60.0 C. What is the pressure at standard temperature?

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

P2=0.385atm

Explanation:

step one:

Given that the temperature T1= 60 Celcius

we can convert this to kelvin by adding 273k to 60 Celcius

we have T1= 333k

pressure P1= 0.470 atm

step two:

we know that the standard temperature is T2= 273K

Applying the temperature and pressure relationship we have

P1/T1=P2/T2

substituting our given data we have

0.47/333=P2/273

cross multiply we have

P2= (0.47*273)/333

P2= 128.31/333

P2=0.385 atm
